RESULTS OF ONLINE SURVEYS COMPLETED BY THE YOUNG PEOPLE

Comments from the online surveys:

They made me feel creative and I had fun and I normally don’t like drawing very much and I don’t normally get creative at school or home
 
I enjoyed them because they introduced me to a new category of art and it took me a long time and perfected my view of art.

I enjoyed them because it’s my first time doing them.

It was really exciting doing new things, like doing things with clay etc.

Because they were really fun.
​
I will miss you guys very much! 
 
I liked to work in a team and really appreciate your support! 
 
I really enjoyed learning British Sign Language. That was a very interesting experience. 
 
Thank you very much. Hope to see you soon again! Best wishes)))
 
It was a big help that you gave [xxx] a one to one with [staff] - she was trying to encourage him to engage with the activities.
 
 
Thank you I loved it thanks for having me!
